One nice feature of image maps is that you can do non rectangular shapes.
Slices are easy enough for rectangles, but the only way to have a circular or irregular polygonal shape is with an image map.

Scripts seems nice, though.

BTW, if you're looking to imitate the trend, it would be iMapper, not Imapper... not sure if that was your goal or not.

Slices have several undesirable characteristics in any implementation. Maps are good for their irregular shapes, but in some browsers can throw off scripts that need to know where the link is when it is hovered or clicked, or that require a link tag, not an area tag.
